PEPE this wave of market movement is indeed fierce. It suddenly surged in a short period, catching many people off guard. Looking at the market, the logic seems to make sense: shorts are being liquidated, retail investors are following the trend, community enthusiasm is high, trading volume skyrocketed by 370%, everything adds up.

But the problem lies in this "everything adds up" perfect story.

Where do those liquidation data you see really come from? Are they real-time? Is there any possibility that trading volume is being manipulated? Are the sudden price jumps normal fluctuations or artificially driven? Most importantly—when you decide to follow this wave of market movement, how reliable are your decision-making bases?

This is the strangest contradiction in the crypto market: we stare at the latest hot topics every day, yet we might be using the least transparent data. Price, trading volume, liquidation data—these key pieces of information that determine your entry or exit—could all be delayed, tampered with, or falsely reported.

Imagine what would happen if critical data were compromised. Wrong liquidation prices could lead to incorrect contract liquidations; fake trading volume could mislead your perception of market heat; delayed price data means the candlestick charts you see are already outdated. Thousands of traders make wrong decisions because of opaque data—this is no trivial concern.

So some smart funds have already been thinking: instead of being led by data, why not bet on infrastructure that can solve the industry's trust issues with data? The entire ecosystem needs more transparent and reliable data sources—that’s the long-term direction worth paying attention to.

Next time you see a sudden price surge, ask yourself: am I trading real prices, or is it possibly contaminated information?

It should be pointed out that the 370% trading volume you see... haha, on-chain data shows that most exchanges' transaction volume statistics have inherent systemic flaws, and some even deliberately inflate figures — this was already demonstrated in a research report from 2017. Speaking of which, PEPE's recent surge was indeed fierce, but smart people have been asking: if the data source itself is contaminated, what basis do you have for decision-making? Based on the following arguments, I dare say that 99% of retail traders' transactions are not based on real prices. What's most ironic? Everyone is pursuing "transparency," yet no one has truly studied the original promise of blockchain — let's return to Satoshi Nakamoto's white paper: decentralized data infrastructure, this is the next track. Well-informed funds have already jumped in, and you're still watching K-line charts... it's really laughable.

It's the same old perfect story routine, 370% trading volume? Haha The real price is still contaminated information, that hits too close to home Can we chase this PEPE wave, or is it more reliable to keep an eye on the data source? Transparency of data is the key, otherwise you'll always be the one getting cut I've long suspected there's something fishy with these data.

Still talking about transparency? Bro, I'm tired of this rhetoric. The key is making money now. They've really trapped me, what's the point of messing around with infrastructure? This 370% volume feels like institutions are accumulating, no matter how dirty the data is, it can't stop the main upward wave. But on the other hand, fake liquidation data is really disgusting. Last time, I got caught by delayed K-line candles and got pumped. Your thinking is correct; instead of researching what the true price is, it's better to follow the smart money. They've already made their bets. It's a harsh statement, but it's too pessimistic. When will the crypto world have transparent data? I just want to ask, how do those coins with polluted data still rise so fiercely? Data pollution, inflated trading volume... Are you hinting at certain exchanges? It's the old trick again: first bearish, then accumulate, and when we're all scared, they push the price up. This time, it seems PEPE is being artificially driven, otherwise it wouldn't be so regular.
